NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
Pursuant to 24 CFR Part 903.17, the New Smyrna Beach Housing Authority (NSBHA), hereby provides notice that it will hold a public hearing on the NSBHA's Federal Fiscal year (FFY) 2022 Capital Fund Budget.
Background:
NSBHA is currently developing its FFY 2022 Capital Fund Budget as required by the Quality Housing and Work Responsibility Act (QHWRA) of 1998. The QHWRA was enacted to revitalize and improve federal public housing and tenant-based assistance programs and makes significant changes to federal and Section 8 tenant-based programs. The NSBHA FFY Capital Fund Budget approved by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) in 2021 states the NSBHA's mission, goals, and objectives for serving the needs of low-income and very low-income families during the year. This FFY 2022 Capital Fund Budget details the operations and contract management of federal public housing capital expenses. As a small agency with less than 250 public housing units all funding from the FFY 2022 Capital Fund Budget may be put into operations of the agency.
